Specific embodiment
As described above, supercapacitor aging must be faster when to get over high-temperature operation.However, in many cases, mistake
Equipment in process control system is operated at a high ambient temperature and/or is heated during operation.High temperature is reduced to supercapacitor
A kind of mode of influence of aging be to reduce the voltage that is charged to of supercapacitor.However, supercapacitor must maintain
To provide non-firm power to the field device of Process Control System, this may need additional enough charges at a lower temperature

The system and method for the disclosure are based at least partially on the temperature of supercapacitor to automatically control supercapacitor
The voltage being charged to.For example, controller can reduce the voltage that supercapacitor is charged to automatically at relatively high temperatures, and
Increase the voltage that supercapacitor is charged under lower temperature.Supercapacitor is reduced when working at high temperature to be charged to
Voltage will reduce influence possessed by high temperature to the aging of supercapacitor.Therefore, the super electricity in Process Control System
The service life of container can be extended.In addition, increasing the voltage that supercapacitor is charged to when operating at a lower temperature
It will ensure that supercapacitor can provide enough non-firm powers for the field device in Process Control System.
Initially, it may be determined that the temperature of supercapacitor, and it is based at least partially on the temperature, controller can determine super
The appropriate target voltage of grade capacitor.For this purpose, controller can use look-up table, the ratio being limited between temperature and voltage is closed
The linear function of system is limited to the nonlinear functions or other suitable calculations of the increasingly complex relationship between temperature and voltage
Method.Controller can repeat the detection, and in some cases, periodically adjust (for example, per minute, every ten minutes, often
Hour).In general, the algorithm that controller uses can export higher target voltage at a lower temperature, and in higher temperature
The lower lower target voltage of output.However, the relationship between temperature and target voltage may not be Strict linear.Namely
It says, in some cases, which can be related to lag, and therefore, and specific be raised and lowered of temperature may not cause mesh

However, the algorithm can also refer to lag, and therefore, and in some cases, the specified difference between current voltage and target voltage
The different any charge or discharge that may not lead to capacitor.When the algorithm determines that input power can be used and need to charge,
Controller can make capacitor be charged to target voltage.When the algorithm, which determines, to be needed to discharge, controller can make electricity

102 are powered using decompression DC/DC converter 110 to charge to supercapacitor 104, and are made under another mode of operation
The DC/DC converter 112 that must boost by the power transmission from supercapacitor 104 to field device 106 or passes through shunt circuit
Dissipate some power.For example, controller 108 can make super capacitor when input power 102 fails to power to field device 106
Device 104 provides non-firm power to field device 106.Converter 110 and 112 does not need to provide as separated module, and
It can define single type of voltage step-up/down converter in some implementations.
In some implementations, the shell of controller 108 may also include temperature sensor, be configured to detect super capacitor
The temperature of device 104.Temperature sensor can be the contact or noncontacting proximity sensor of any suitable type, such as thermistor
Device, thermostat or thermocouple.In other implementations, controller 108 receives the temperature of instruction supercapacitor 104 from external sensor
The signal of degree, the external sensor can be positioned on or near supercapacitor 104.
In other realization, controller 108 is configured as based on supercapacitor 104, input power 102 and/or shows

In example implementation, if the dry part of circuit 100 is provided in single integrated circuit, such as public by insulting Li Erte
Take charge of (Linear Technology Corporation) manufacture3350 backup power source controllers.In this implementation, collect
Temperature reading can be for example provided via dedicated pin at circuit, and another controller operated separately with integrated circuit can
Realize some or all functions of the voltage at least controlling supercapacitor 104 based on temperature.Below with reference to Fig. 2 discussion
The realization.
In some cases, when controller 108 (or another controller operated in circuit 100) detects super capacitor
When the temperature of device 104 has built up, controller 108 reduces circuit by the voltage that supercapacitor 104 is charged to.For example, control
Device 108 processed can make the circuit operation by-passing parts to remove excessive charge from supercapacitor, until voltage sufficiently reduces.It is logical
This mode is crossed, the service life of supercapacitor can be extended.Similarly, when the temperature of supercapacitor 104 reduces, control
Device 108 processed can make circuit increase the voltage that supercapacitor 104 is charged to.In this way, when field device 106 is usual
Need biggish power and the charging voltage when aging is less important, at the colder temperature of 108 maximizing of controller.

And temperature reading.
Referring now to Figure 3, can realize as shown in Fig. 1 or 2 for being operatively coupled in Process Control System
The supercapacitor (for example, supercapacitor 104) of input power (for example, input power 102), at high temperature sensitive for damages,
And the exemplary method 30 of the circuit (for example, circuit 100) of field device (for example, field device 106).Specifically, method 300
It may be implemented as instruction set, which is stored on computer-readable memory, and can control in one or more

In some embodiments, target voltage level VTIt can be additionally based on and be coupled to the power of the field device of the circuit and want
It asks to determine.For example, actuator may need a certain amount of electric power that valve is moved to some position.Specifically, in input electricity
In the case that source powers without normal direction actuator, it may be necessary to which valve is moved to home.Therefore, voltage level VTIt can be with actuating
Electrical needed for valve is moved to home by device.Additionally or alternatively, in some embodiments, target voltage level
VTIt can be determined based on the electricity availability at input power.For example, when the electricity availability at input power reduces, to now
The priority of field device power supply, which can be higher than to supercapacitor, powers, and therefore in this case, the mesh of supercapacitor
Mark voltage level VTIt can reduce.

On the one hand, when make instruction target voltage VTHigher than voltage VCJudgement when, may make the circuit supply the electricity from input power
Lotus is to be charged to target voltage V for supercapacitorT。
If the reduction (frame 308 is no) of temperature is not detected, the voltage that supercapacitor is charged to can keep phase
With (that is, VT=VC).Certainly, in some embodiments, the voltage that supercapacitor is charged to, which can be based additionally on, is coupled to this
The electricity needs of the field device of circuit and/or the electricity availability at input power and change, as discussed above.It can be with
It is made again about whether having been detected by the raised inquiry (frame 304) of temperature, and the stream can be repeated in some cases
